Streamlined administration

No recommended dosage adjustment for many patient populations1

DALVANCE is substantially excreted by the kidney, and the risk of adverse reactions may be greater in patients
with impaired renal function. Because elderly patients are more likely to have decreased renal function, care should
be taken in dose selection in this age group.

Caution should be exercised when prescribing DALVANCE to patients with moderate or severe hepatic
impairment (Child-Pugh Class B or C) as no data are available to determine the appropriate dosing in these patients.

To reduce the development of drug-resistant bacteria and maintain the effectiveness of DALVANCE and other antibacterial
agents, DALVANCE should be used only to treat infections that are proven or strongly suspected to be caused by susceptible
bacteria.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

Contraindications

DALVANCE is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to dalbavancin.

Warnings and Precautions

Hypersensitivity Reactions

Serious hypersensitivity (anaphylactic) and skin reactions have been reported with glycopeptide antibacterial agents, including
DALVANCE. Exercise caution in patients with known hypersensitivity to glycopeptides due to the possibility of cross-sensitivity.
If an allergic reaction occurs, treatment with DALVANCE should be discontinued.

Infusion-related Reactions

Rapid intravenous infusion of DALVANCE can cause reactions, including flushing of the upper body, urticaria, pruritus, rash,
and/or back pain.

Hepatic Effects

ALT elevations with DALVANCE treatment were reported in clinical trials.

Clostridium difficile-associated Diarrhea

Clostridium difficile-associated diarrhea (CDAD) has been reported with nearly all systemic antibacterial agents, including
DALVANCE, with severity ranging from mild diarrhea to fatal colitis. Evaluate if diarrhea occurs.

Development of Drug-resistant Bacteria

Prescribing DALVANCE in the absence of a proven or strongly suspected bacterial infection is unlikely to provide benefit to the
patient and increases the risk of the development of drug-resistant bacteria.

Adverse Reactions

The most common adverse reactions in patients treated with DALVANCE were nausea (4.7%), headache (3.8%), and diarrhea
(3.4%).

Use in Specific Populations

There have been no adequate and well-controlled studies with DALVANCE in pregnant or nursing women.
DALVANCE should only be used if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk in these populations.

In patients with renal impairment whose known creatinine clearance is less than 30 mL/min and who are not receiving
regularly scheduled hemodialysis, the recommended regimen of DALVANCE is 1125 mg, administered as a single
dose, or 750 mg followed one week later by 375 mg. No dosage adjustment is recommended for patients receiving
regularly scheduled hemodialysis, and DALVANCE can be administered without regard to the timing of hemodialysis.

Caution should be exercised when prescribing DALVANCE to patients with moderate or severe hepatic impairment
(Child-Pugh Class B or C) as no data are available to determine the appropriate dosing in these patients.
